We've come a long way
"I want that image … I want that image." Before video integration, a
surgeon viewing video in real time would click the foot pedal to cap-
ture an image, and 2 copies would print: 1 for the paper chart and 1 to
take to the lobby to show the patient's family. Not long ago, it was
considered high-tech to print surgical images, and then scan them on
a document scanner for integration into the EHR. Labor and cost-
intensive, yes, but it was better than having only still images in the
paper chart. What's more, with scanning you can't perform accurate
measurements or magnify the scanned image without losing resolu-
tion. With image-capture systems, the surgeon goes into the waiting
room after cases with his iPad and shows families dynamic images.
We recently implemented a surgical imaging management system

non-interfering frequency channels. That means you can run
as many as nine wireless systems simultaneously! And that
gives you more HD wireless imaging, with less cables, less
cleaning time, improved OR safety, and faster tur naround.
